And you'll have that advantage over them as long as they continue to think it.

I remember one post Martin made when he said it bugged him how ppl think ls3 heads don't make torque. They were designed to make torque with less cam. Overcsmming them kills them far worse than overcsmming cathedrals.

And wtf is THAT what spellcheck is doing??

Got around 5 more and a few recent builds. All under 420 ci. Making over 730. Using Factory Ls3 heads. It's good times for the avg. person who wants hp relatively cheap. You don't need 2nd hand NASCAR heads to make hp like the olden days.



200,000 lbs crane killed me on time, just got in from near the border. Hell I've been up since 5am may as well do a 2 a day and read something till 5am.

TSP new casting process for their heads.

What special, 1 off block and heads are these? Oh I forgot I researched this one when the 2017 IMSA WEATHERTECH SPORTSCAR CHAMPIONSHIP started back months ago. Here are the specs so as you don't have 2 go looking.

Bore / Stroke 103.3 mm (4.1 in) / 92.0 mm (3.6 in)
Kinda looks similar to yours and Navy's build with the bore and stroke.

My bodies calmed down after all the driving, I maybe able to stay up another 20 min. watching the tube. BTW Hammer ask Darth to send you over some of the threads I sent his way, also a few head comparisons with pics. You may learn something.
